The packages are wrapped and ready for the mail; I found enough large bags that I should be able to get everything into the post office in one trip. I hate to think what these packages might cost me but it’s worth it – you’re worth it, right!

I spent the morning in the kitchen doing some baking. Pat is hosting a Song Circle at the Hall tonight so I told him I’d do some baking for it. I made a Cranberry Bundt cake and some shortbread. I haven’t baked anything since my marathon for Cranberry Day this past August. I will make another Bundt cake for the Guild pot luck later in the week; I’m also looking at some of my other Christmas recipes and I may do a bit more. Not that we need it but there are some recipes I have only ever made at Christmas – brown sugar fudge, nuts & bolts, and chocolate shortbread to name a few ideas going through my mind. I still have a couple of things to finish stitching before Christmas so I’ll see how that goes before I add anything more to my list.

But what to do now? Start in with that stitching? Clean up the wrapping paper from the past couple of days? Start re-arranging my sewing space (again!)? Too many decisions – maybe I’ll curl up with a book for the rest of the afternoon.
